Like us, Elaquent named Shigeto’s “Huron River Drive” as one of the best songs of 2012. But seeing how I’m not a producer, I couldn’t pay tribute to the beautiful cut by remixing it. That’s where Elaquent comes in. The Ontario, Canada-based producer has transformed the tune into a certified head-nodder, slappin’ drums and all. There’s also a killer transition about halfway through, as additional layers weave in and out of the groove.
